Health problems heavily affected Cymba McReynolds’ performance in high school, so her options where limited when she graduated. After taking a year off between high school and college, a healthier Cymba started at Kennedy-King College as an affordable way to transition to college and get her GPA back up to where she wanted it to be.

As someone who loves learning, a reinvigorated Cymba immediately took to student life. It felt good to be back in the classroom, but she did have to learn new ways to manage her time, particularly in writing intensive classes. Luckily, she always found the help she needed and adapted to the changes with ease. Now that she has finished at Kennedy-King, Cymba’s ultimate goal is to continue her education and eventually open a business in her local community.
